absorption of, trace elements. The measurement of trace elements in nail or nail clippings offers some benefits relative to other body sites. Typically, concentrations of elements are assessed in clippings,
This is the first study to use Raman spectroscopy to compare nail composition across different ages and sexes in healthy adults. The findings
In this study, researchers analyzed nail clippings from fentanyl users and non-users to identify spectral differences indicative of fentanyl or its metabolites.
Nails grow in two different directions—length and thickness , . This unique growth pattern, along with the keratinized layers produced by the nail matrix, ensures that trace elements
In order to study how to pretreat real hair and nail samples and also to find out the range and concentration of elements present, hair and nail samples from one of the authors of this contribution
ATR-FT-IR spectroscopy can provide rapid and portable measurements in forensic applications, demonstrating its ability to rapidly detect
Abstract Human biomarkers, such as hair and nails, often provide a continuous record of element concentration to indicate the nutritional status and metabolic changes. Laser-induced
Utilizing a handheld near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy device for in vivo nail assessment proved to be a pragmatic methodology for exploring the biochemistry of nail tissue, considering the variable nail
Hair and nails are human biomarkers capable of providing a continuous assessment of the concentrations of elements inside the human body to indicate the nutritional status, metabolic
This work compared the multi-element analysis of human hair and nails using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS) with an
Considering the potential low amount of real nail and hair samples, three different digestion methods were tested, involving different dilutions factors (see Table 1 for details).
NaIL can provide large volume, single material detectors for both gammas and neutrons at a low price per volume. The Neutron Detection efficiency for NaIL
In this study, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy has been employed for the analysis of 19 brands of nail polish with 73 different series (similar shades). The spectra obtained using this technique have
NAIL-MS (nucleic acid isotope labeling coupled mass spectrometry) relies on the metabolic incorporation of stable isotope labeled nutrients into RNA and allows the distinction of
In this paper, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technique is used to analyze human fingernails using nanosecond laser pulses from an neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum
In this study, we present a novel approach of utilizing Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR FT-IR) spectroscopy to predict the age of donors based on nail samples.
Nail polish can be important evidence in crimes like murder, rape, and suicides. Due to its prevalence, it can be important corroborative evidence in crime reconstruction. This paper reports
Keywords: nail psoriasis, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) 1. Introduction Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease
PDF | On Apr 28, 2023, Muhammad Naeim Mohamad Asri and others published Forensic analysis of nail polish traces on different substrates using ATR-FTIR
Fingernail clippings contain ± 85% of keratins, which are prone to glycation. Nail keratin glycation may reflect the average glycemia over the last months. We explored if attenuated total
Raman spectroscopy was applied to nail clippings from 633 postmenopausal British and Irish women, from six clinical sites, of whom 42% had experienced a fragility fracture.
This study evaluates near-infrared spectroscopy for non-invasive detection of glycated keratin in nails in vivo.
By leveraging Raman spectroscopy, we analyzed the molecular composition of psoriatic nails, characterized structural alterations induced by psoriasis, and assessed its potential as a
ISOFIT contains a set of routines and utilities for fitting surface, atmosphere and instrument models to imaging spectrometer data. It is written primarily in Python, with JSON format configuration files and
Background Nail properties and appearances can indicate a person''s underlying systemic diseases. Raman spectroscopy is an established
A noninvasive method for measuring blood glucose levels, developed at MIT, could save diabetes patients from having to prick their fingers several
Raman spectroscopy is a promising method for the differentiation of healthy vs. diseased nails, including efficient differentiation between onychomycosis caused by T. rubrum and Candida
